About Javonne

Javonne Spivey is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPC, LPCC) with ten years of clinical experience. She offers a warm, validating style and focuses on helping people with depression, anxiety, self-esteem, trauma, and relationship challenges. Javonne encourages clients to take an active role in therapy and values direct, respectful connection.

She blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing to help people notice how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact. Sessions often include education about self-talk and practical exercises to shift thinking. Javonne also incorporates Christian faith when clients request it, using scripture and prayerful reflections as part of the work.

Javonne created a Christian mental wellness journal called Changing My Unhealthy Thoughts. The journal teaches a technique called prayerful thoughts, where scripture is used to challenge and replace unhealthy thinking patterns. She can introduce tools from the journal during sessions when it fits the client’s goals.

Her approach is collaborative and feedback-friendly. She helps people identify strengths and set manageable goals, using short exercises and guided discussion to practice new skills between meetings. Clients leave sessions with simple steps to try in everyday life.

Javonne practices in Georgia and communicates in English. She accepts international clients, and works with people facing a range of life concerns including parenting stress, career decisions, grief, and compassion fatigue. To begin, clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule sessions according to the therapist’s availability.

How CBT and Motivational Interviewing Work Online

Javonne uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT often involves short exercises, thought records, and trying new actions between sessions to reduce symptoms like low mood or anxiety. Motivational Interviewing focuses on clarifying what matters to the person and boosting their own motivation to try change, which can help with goals like managing stress, making career moves, or addressing difficult habits.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. Javonne will work with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. She welcomes feedback and adjusts the plan as the work progresses so sessions stay practical and goal-focused.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a workday, or letting someone meet from a quieter spot. It also supports using tools like thought logs, worksheets, and the Christian wellness journal between meetings to keep progress moving.
